AK74S sight mount

[Blade2k9]

anyone found out a technician, who provides the sight upgrade for a regular AK74S (non-unique) to be able to use red dot etc?
i already have te PSO-4x, but i want the option for red dot too.
i am starting to believe, this option dosnt exist in the game.

dont believe it exists for the regular 74 unless youre talking about attaching PSO scope to the side rail
only the aks74u can a pic rail on the dust cover upgrade from tech

You don't need to upgrade it, you actually have to find the sight for it.
The sight is called the PSO-4X scope, and its literally the same as the unique one but you can remove it when its not needed.
Vendors will usually have it, i believe the Duty vendor will almost always have it.

For some insane reason they don't want the 74S to have most optics that even the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ snub nose version can.

You are not crazy, they just made your first proper assault rifle awkward to use on purpose until you are at a point in the game it is so obsolete it can barely tickle things. (if you can get an x4 scope that fits it, you can get x2 penetration automatics at minimum which are allowed to use the dot sights even Lens sold).

Also don't be tempted by the valik's which comes with a scope built in. That ♥♥♥♥ has wacky jam code. And combined with my own bad luck I have seen it jam three times during a single magazine while fighting a bloodsucker in the early game. Literally just stopped to open my bag and switch in a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ viper to finish the job.

well, i guess i have to switch between x4 PSO and x1 sights then -.-

Those upgrades are bugged so don't even bother.

Example:
1. AS VAL has such upgrade
2. I installed such upgrade and wanted to use ACOG
3. Cannot use ACOG because... AS VAL can use only dovetail joint upgrades even with installed picatinny rails.

♥♥♥♥ like this was part of why I loved the IL-86 in CoP. Except it was only mildly bad instead of insanely bad.

One type of attach scopes had zoom levels bugged (I can never remember if it was the susat or nato). GP37 and FT200m could only get x4 zoom with backtrack from pripyat Tier 3 tools. Chunky boy 86 could get x4 with a tier 1 upgrade, the end, no fuss. Perfect for early game coward assault sniping (along with tier1 silencer access) before full auto rambo accuracy was more important.

See also: I am the only person who kinda misses wacky tinted contrast sights, in a game much more notably missing night vision and binoculars.

The ACOG shouldnt even be able to go in the AS VAL.

With picatinny rails you should be able to install any western optics. Can you install pacatinny rails on AS VAL in Stalker 2? Yes. Can you use western optics with such upgrade? No, only some of them ( eidt. even if the others that you cannot install have the same length and other metrics).

Look, at this point complaining about that of all things, is like stopping to chide someone for asking "I need a new clip!" and not giving them more ammo until they apologize, while you are in the middle of a firefight with three gunshot wounds already.

Comedy edit; I once won an online swordfight (I can't remember if it was mordhau or chivalry 2) against an unstoppable big sword helicopter annihilating all who approached them, because they stopped to correct someone about the difference between a mag and a clip. Don't let that ♥♥♥♥ get to you on the battlefield, kids.
